Already in training it was announced that he would be for Max Verstappen wins in Singapore all before you can work. Dutchman he complained about the shortage after qualifying grip and on top of that his race car was not as fast as its competitors at Mercedes in Ferrari. Verstappen took to the night race Singapore eliminated from fourth place.
With a good strategy in the race, it can be Max gained one place and crossed the finish line as the third - for Sebastian Vettl in Charles Leclerc. “But that's not good enough. We wanted to win here and that was more than obviously not possible. The qualifiers were worse than the race, but overall, Singapore was a concrete warning to us. As far as our form is concerned, the race in Singapore was perhaps our worst performance in all the races after the victory in Austria. Mainly also because we expected to be really strong here. Now we have to look at this in peace and in Sochi the picture must be much better."
Max Verstappen he adds his point of view of the race itself: “I could have followed Ferrari, but I was never in a position to attack seriously. At the start of the race it was just about managing the tires as we were all driving slowly. We did the tire change at the right time as we managed to overtake Lewis and that was very positive. That we finally managed to reach third place after all this was a good feeling for us."
